Note: This is gonna be a very very thinly veiled sort of “metaphor” (excuse me if I used the wrong word, it might be another figure of speech) for somethings that I first tried out this year. Mind…

It is easier, perhaps, to vote for a bridge, or a barrio road, or an artesian well, or a President’s brother, than for a principle and for the ultimate good of the whole nation, but it is fatal to our primordial purpose of founding here a true democracy.

I wanna wish you a Merry Christmas
from the bottom of my heart!

Song of Maria Clara

Sweet are the hours in one’s native land

Where all is dear, the sunbeams bless

Life-giving breezes sweep the strand

And death is softened by love’s caress



Warm kisses play on her mother’s lips

On her fond, tender breasts awakening

When around her neck, a soft arm slips

And bright eyes, all love partaking



Sweet is death for one’s native land 

Where all is dear, the sunbeams bless

Dead is the breeze that sweeps the strand

Without a mother, home, or love’s caress

Watched this movie called Gabriel today. At first I was interested in it only because it had my name on it. Looked it up on Wikipedia and it clicked with my old obsession with namesakes.Andy Whitfield † may you rest in peace.

Itong full frontal nudity: CHECK! Itong death defying scene: CHECK! Itong sex scene na may actual penetration: CHECK NA CHECK! Gagawin ko ang lahat… wag niyo naman akong palusungin sa tae. Hello, tae yun Direk, tae. MABAHO. Alam niyo bang mabaho ang tae?

Just watched Ang Babae sa Septic Tank. Really funny, though I found the plot lacking.
